How many times have I heard that archaeology disproves the Bible. Yet the people who claim this can never site any examples.
Pun intended?................site vs cite?...............
I study history. Archeology on the contrary proves biblical historical facts.
When people say that, they mean that not all events cited in the Bible are supported by evidence currently discovered by archaeologists.
“Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence,” archaeologists say. Even allowing that much evidence may have vanished beyond recovery, there’s still lots of excavation to be done. In a way, it’s good that so many sites are still unexplored, because archaeological technology and technique has improved enormously in the last century. If people had been digging in the 1920’s, they might have missed important information.
